Though it has taken weeks in real life terms... because real life obligations have gotta come first...
May 1942,
U-153 (My current boat... Type IXC) is just NorthWest of Curacao after a slow trawl through the Bermuda Triangle and a few days hunting between Mobile Alabama and Galveston Texas.
The crew made mention of other boats sighting 'Ghost Ships' in the Triangle... but mostly I think the length of the trip and the monotony have them quite jumpy.
After a couple days off Curacao and later Port Au Prince Haiti... I'll start the trip home to Lorient.
Have sustained some minor damage from attacking aircraft near the tip of Florida... but so far we are dealing with it and pressing on.
Have sent five ships to the bottom so far. Nine eels remaining. Will save the final two for the trip home if the diesel holds out.
Lots of heavy weather.
